On Wednesday, November 20, at 1pm, the team will be ready and waiting somewhere in London to give one lucky individual a £2,500 prize, along with some other prizes to dish out. You only have to figure out where they'll be from the daily clues being dropped along the way.
This '?' competition is a bit like a treasure hunt - but with a far better prize than anything you might have come across as a child. To be clear, the Wowcher team won't be carrying the cash themselves, but whoever finds them first will still come away £2,500 richer.
